Voice Role

Famous quotes containing the words voice and/or role:

    There was neither voice nor crested image,
    No chorister, nor priest. There was
    Only the great height of the rock
    And the two of them standing still to rest.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    Mental health data from the 1950’s on middle-aged women showed them to be a particularly distressed group, vulnerable to depression and feelings of uselessness. This isn’t surprising. If society tells you that your main role is to be attractive to men and you are getting crow’s feet, and to be a mother to children and yours are leaving home, no wonder you are distressed.
    Grace Baruch (20th century)
